Arse, bugger, feck....
Discussion
Well folks, was finally about to complete on the purchase of the house when a couple of hitches emerged; on their part an issue with a shared driveway, and on my part impending redundancy. Luckily someone tipped me the wink before I went through with the purchase anyway, so I had time to bail out as otherwise I could have been right up the proverbial creek..
On the positive side, looks like I have the summer to play around with cars and go flying, so I think I can see a positive side to this.. Does mean I'm not likely to be putting in an appearance for beer and curry for a little while although couple of interesting looking roles in the area so I might be back..

Bugger mate... apparantly 1 in 4 transactions dont go through, but nearly always for the better, somthing else will happen that makes you realise buying the place wasnt really a good idea. HIP's that are due to come in & speed up the process wont stop many purchases falling through but even if they did I believe you still need about 6 weeks from start to finish just to really make you mind up its the right thing to do.
Good luck mate...

Arse, bugger, feck indeed. With knobs on.
I feel for you mate; nearly went redundant just before BabyV6 mk1 arrived on the scene. Turned out allright in the end, though.
Not sure *exactly* what it is you do day-to-day, but there do seem to be some more interesting local positions coming through on jobserve recently.

Thanks guys.. I'm just glad I had a bit of a tip off that something was afoot; otherwise I'd not be in the best of positions now to say the least. New place was a stretch financially to say the least..
Jobs wise, I'm an occupational psychologist by training, but I've been working as a general management consultant for the last 5 or so years.. Plan was always to go back to my roots, just hadn't planned on it just yet.. Now seems like a good time
Managed to get one interview lined up before I've even left so I reckon I'll be ok. Can't work out if I am annoyed or relieved about the timing.. Hey ho, sh1t happens. At least I get the summer off the play with cars and go flying..

Shared drive access is a nightmare.
It certainly slowed things up.. I'd probably not bother getting too interested in the future with a similar property truth be told..
How wide a drive do you need for a cardinal on a BMX?
Good to see you at the weekend Dr 'Bert
Well Mr Bert, I'm sorry to hear about your accomodation woes....if you are around this summer and need a passenger for an evenings run, don't forget I'm only 3 doors away literally (Flat 5!) and will certainly buy you a pint or two of a fruit based beverage somewhere if you fancy it.
Whats happened with your mirror? I asked Kev63 who I work with and he says they are like blooming gold dust. His Cerb needs one and it's off a Corrado so slightly traceable.
Oh well...taraa for now
